Is it because of the war? Jobless people? Crime? Bush telling lies to the American people?

I just saw the news about a mob boss captured. They were showing hundreds of kilos in cocaine and marijuana that they confiscated. What does the US do with all the drug and drug money??? You never hear about that.

It seems that some people in DC are concerned about his recent speech, referencing "...the march of democracy from Baghdad to Beirut..." Don't you think the world is getting tired of the US trying to "export" democracy?

Judge nixes warrantless surveillance By SARAH KARUSH, Associated Press Writer. ( Note: This hurts Bush )

DETROIT - A federal judge ruled Thursday that the government's warrantless wiretapping program is unconstitutional and ordered an immediate halt to it.

U.S. District Judge Anna Diggs Taylor in Detroit became the first judge to strike down the National Security Agency's program, which she says violates the rights to free speech and privacy as well as the separation of powers enshrined in the Constitution.

"Plaintiffs have prevailed, and the public interest is clear, in this matter. It is the upholding of our Constitution," Taylor wrote in her 43-page opinion.

The Justice Department appealed the ruling and issued a statement calling the ruling a slap in the face for Mr Bush.

Many rap songs I listen to seem to be about drug dealing and prostition and how much money the rap artirts are making from it. There are execptions ofcourse. I have heard most of these tracks on the radio, and the words are all about gansta lifestyles and I see kids who look up to these artists and try to copy them. On the other hand while this stuff is all over mtv and the media the goverment does nothing to warn kids about the dangers of drugs through the media. They could do it through real life examples but they seem to choose to ignore the problem. Am I right?

I know I am gonna hear about this one from the people defending the terrorists and slamming republicans, but just take a second and imagine if treehuggers and pacifistst were responsible for defending us from people who don't care if they live or die, just so some of us die with them? Just a hint, I don't believe hugging a terrorist or blaming our government will deter them!

Personally, I believe that if we have nothing to hide involving "terrorist operations" then the President has every right to use everything at his disposal to protect us from these people. Mr. President, you can "tap" my phone lines anytime you would like to! Thank you Mr. President for involking everything at your disposal to protect the United States from these terrorists!!

My English teacher stated that George Washington was not the first president of our "country," he was the first president of the "United States of America?" I asked what he meant, but he told me to find it out for myself. What does my teacher mean, and who was the first president of our "country?"

I know that a lot of you either love or hate Bush... But how many of you (fairly) indiscriminantly hate politicians in general?

I mean honestly, talk about a bunch of headline chasing liberals. I personally wish that the ACLU would disappear because the only thing they cause is frustration and complications. They dont just support and strive to protect civil rights, they jump on anyone that proposes programs that protect our freedom. So you choose, which one would you rather have, freedom of speech or freedom itself. Our government does everything it can to protect the interests of its people, thus it is a government "for the people, by the people". It is not a corrupt agency that is looking to violate every natural human right that the ACLU seems to be claiming. What are your thoughts on the ACLU?

"The government argued that the program is well within the president's authority, but said proving that would require revealing state secrets."







Obviously, they support the terrorists cause. Do you feel less safe now that these liberal judges are taking control of the government and not allowing wiretapping without a warrant? grrrr. Makes me want to vote Republican just to show them who is boss.
